    Les photos sont très cool! Et nos Micra sont presque identiques (plaque euro, jantes noires). Ça me donne le gout d'aller faire un peu de dune buggy aussi

    For a while, I had considered doing my micra up like a baby rally car.. Add some long flaps, make up some skid plates out of 1/4" thick aluminum plate. But after seeing how little it takes to damage the condensor, I reconsidered. But, you could armor that up easily. Toss on some nice OZ rims and some dual sport rubber and a bit more exhaust and you could have a good little car.

    Micra has a disctinct advantage because the tires are out at the edges. Good angle of approach and departure.

    Its certainly not impossible.
